'''Marina di Policoro''' is a brand new, luxury residential and marina development some 35 miles SW of [[Taranto]] on the W side of the Golfo di Taranto. Constructed in its own private lagoon by the Marinagri Resort company and situated four kilometers east of the town of Polidoro, the development will eventually provide, in addition to residential units, a total of around 750 berths for vessels of up to 30 metres. In addition to marina berths, the development also includes a boatyard capable of undertaking most repair and maintenance tasks.

==Local Weather==
+
It is advisable to make advance reservations.
-
During the summer the prevailing winds in the Ionian are light to moderate SW or SE seabreezes.  In spring and autumn northerly winds are more frequent and can quickly rise to near gale force, especially in the lee of high mountain ranges.  Winds in summer are generally light from the Straits of Messina until reaching the Golfo di Squillace between [[Rocella Ionica]] and [[Le Castella]].  With anything W in the wind, it tends to funnel down here over the mountains of southern Calabria, bringing strong gusts and raising an uncomfortable sea.  The conditions to avoid, however, when cruising this part of the Ionian coast are strong southerlies.  The harbours here are few and far between and none of them are really safe to enter in such conditions.  Further east in the Gulf of Taranto local seabreezes predominate during the summer, although a light to moderate northerly is not uncommon.

Sources for weather information:
+
-
* There is a continuous (computerised voice) weather forecast on VHF 68 - first in Italian and then followed with an English translation.
+
-
* The same forecast is given in Italian and English on VHF coastal stations following a notification on channel 16.
